CURSES Deuteronomy 28: 15-68

It is clear from this chapter that if we obey the commandments of God (the Ten Commandments -Exodus 20: 1-17) we will be blessed. If we disobey them, then we come
under the curses of God. In this chapter there are 118 curses referred to including great and prolonged sicknesses, madness, blindness, and confusion of heart (mental
breakdown). They are set out below.
Of course we are not saved by obeying the law but through the Cross of Jesus Christ, repenting and believing in Jesus Christ as our Lord and Saviour and obeying His
commandments.

When we do this we are delivered from the curses of the law.

One of the commandments of the law is to honour our parents that our days may be long and we may live long on the earth. (Exodus 20: 12)

Another commandment is that we are not to make for ourselves any carved image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in
the water under the earth; nor are we to bow down to them nor serve them. For the LORD is a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and fourth
generations of those who hate Him. (Exodus 20: 4-5)

Many of us have had parents or ancestors who have been involved in the occult. Sometimes we ourselves have been involved and accordingly these curses can come upon
us unless we repent.

In Galatians 3: 13 we are told that at the Cross we have been delivered from the curses of the law and in Galatians 3: 14 we are told that we come into the blessing of Abraham
whom God blessed in all things.

“Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us (for it is written, “Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree”), that the blessing of Abraham might
come upon the Gentiles in Christ Jesus, that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.”

We strongly recommend that you examine your feelings towards your parents (alive or dead) and if there is any unforgiveness or failure to honour them you should immediately
repent, acknowledge Jesus Christ as your Lord and Saviour and renounce the sins of your parents and ancestors in the name of Jesus Christ. You will then be delivered from the
curses of the law and this deliverance will remain as you stay obedient to God.

Even if your father has done terrible things to you, with the help of the Holy Spirit you can forgive him. If you do not forgive him, then you will still remain under the curses of
the law. Jesus Christ has given us the power to forgive through the help of the Holy Spirit. (John 20: 21)

“So Jesus said to them again, “Peace to you! As the Father has sent Me, I also send you.” And when He had said this, He breathed on them, and said to them, “Receive the Holy Spirit. If you forgive the sins of any, they are forgiven them; if you retain the sins of any, they are retained.”

We find that many people who have been adopted at birth have major difficulties as they grow older because they have never honoured their natural mother and father and
renounced their sins.

In all cases we recommend the following prayer, said with a believing heart.

“Dear Heavenly Father, I come to You in the mighty name of Jesus Christ. I honour my mother and father. I absolutely forgive them for any hurts real or imagined. I now
renounce their sins and the sins of my ancestors in the name of Jesus Christ and I believe I am delivered from the curse of the law through the Cross of Jesus Christ. Thank You
Father, in Jesus’ name. Amen.”

If this prayer is said with utter sincerity and belief in every way, then this will cut the cords of the past and the curse will be reversed and healing will flow.
